Kanye West is in the headlines again…this time the rapper is trending after calling Rosa Parks, the civil rights icon, “a plant.”
“All of these heroes man… it’s only one. That’s Jesus Christ. You’re gonna find out something about MLK, something about JFK, something about Malcolm, Rosa Parks. We know Rosa Parks was a plant,” said Ye.
He continued, “We know all of these things and they use these media outlets to outrage. Outrage is an economy, the trauma economy. What death are we gonna promote this week? It ain’t like 14 people are getting killed every week in Chicago. But no, we’re going to publicize this on our– I’m not gonna say whose platform it is. It was the Jews.”
Ye made the remarks in his Clubhouse livestream with Wack 100. The platform suspended his account over his anti-semitic remarks…and not for the anti-Black remarks he made about Parks.
Did Ye go too far?
